Our data & accuracy
Where our data comes from, and how we check it.
Sources
Public records. Nothing else.
Everything we publish comes from public records.
- Bid results and tabulations published by the Illinois Department of Transportation
- Bid tabulations posted by county highway departments, township road districts and municipalities
- Public plan holder lists, where agencies publish them
- Public directories of prequalified contractors
We never use information behind logins.
We never pay anyone for non-public information.
Method
How we check every number
Five steps, on every job, before anything reaches your inbox.
- 01
Extract
We pull every line item from the bid document.
- 02
Recalculate
Quantity × unit price must equal each line total.
qty × unit price = line total - 03
Reconcile
Line totals must equal the bid total read at the opening.
Σ line totals = bid total - 04
Hold or review
Anything that doesn’t match is checked by hand or held back.
- 05
Link the source
Every job in an alert links to the original document.
